Chapter 89: First part of Crumbling The Nine Heavens. “I will be spending most of this trip in deep cultivation. I should be able to notice if anything happens thanks to my connection with Little Gray, but there is no guarantee. So if anything happens and I don't notice it, you need to knock some sense into me.” After they entered the gate, Yao Jun sat down next to the ancient tree at the center of the garden. Crumbling The Nine Heavens required him to create a new channel that connected him and his power, so he wanted to be as close to the center of his power as possible, so as to prevent any accidents from happening. “Don't worry, I will make sure that nothing will disturb you.” Guo Luo gave a strong nod and showed a determined face as she spoke. Yao Jun's mouth curved into a smile and he bent forward and gave Guo Luo a quick kiss before sitting down. Little Thunder, Sirius, and Ba-Shei came over and sat down next to Yao Jun, guarding him. Little Thunder laid down behind Yao Jun, allowing Yao Jun to lean his backwards onto Little Thunder's side. Sirius laid down to his left like a watch dog while Ba-Shei curled up on his right. With Guo Luo sitting in front of him, he was being guarded at all sides. Yao Jun leaned his body backwards onto Little Thunder and closed his eyes. Since they were already sitting inside his Demon God's Gate, all he would have to do to create the new channel was to focus his mind and endure the resulting pain. With Yao Jun closing his eyes and starting to focus, Guo Luo took out a canvas, some paint, and a few brushes from her interspatial ring. She quickly set up the canvas and started painting. She wanted to immortalize this scene of Yao Jun relaxing, his Demonic beasts guarding at his side. Yao Jun focused his mind on the Demon God's Gate, putting all his focus on the ancient tree. After he made sure that all his focus was on the tree, he started channeling his Qi using the principle that Sword Empyrean Heng Jiang had taught him. All living beings circulated their Qi through their veins, it flowed side by side with their blood. After the Qi reached the desired position, they would pull the Qi out from their veins and out through their skin and into the surrounding world. The Qi would then use the power of that person, as well as that persons imagination, to interact with the surrounding Natural Qi to create the desired effect. When one fully immersed in cultivation, time stopped mattering. Yao Jun had even heard of people who had reached such a high level of cultivation that they could close their eyes to cultivate and wake up many years later, feeling as if but a few minutes had passed. Because of this, Yao Jun was unaware of the passage of time as he was cultivating. He channeled his Qi through his entire body, absorbing Natural Qi from the surroundings as he did so. Once he made sure that ever single one of his veins was filled to the brim, he started the next step in practicing the Crumbling The Nine Heavens Technique. He extracted a stream of black Qi from the ancient tree and pulled it towards his body. Normally, this stream of Qi would enter his veins and circulate through his body. But since his veins were currently filled to the brim, there was no way for it to enter his veins. This would usually lead to one of two scenarios. The first was one where the person was keeping an eye on how much he absorbed. Making sure that he did not absorb too much, the person would make the stream of Qi pass over his body instead of absorbing it. The second scenario was where the person was careless and did not pay attention to how much Qi he absorbed. The stream of Qi would attempt to enter his vein, causing the vein to become bloated and exploding. If the vein was not too important and treated quickly, it would at worst result in the person becoming crippled in that part of the body. But if the vein was important or he waited too long with treating it, it could very easily lead to his death. Of course, Yao Jun would not try to absorb this stream of Qi with his veins. The purpose of this stream of Qi was to create a new channel that connected him with his Demon God Gate, a secondary vein that was filled with the purest of Qi, ready to explode forth at a moments notice. In the later stages of training in this technique, it was even necessary to make one of these channels in his own soul. Yao Jun had considered trying to create a channel in his soul immediately, but after some deliberation, he dropped this idea. He had only just recently started being able to control his soul, so he was not willing to risk it. The stream of Qi stopped at the back of Yao Jun's left palm, hovering above the skin. Yao Jun took a deep breath to prepare himself before he made the stream of Qi plunge into his hand. Blood started pouring out from his hand as the Qi dug into his hand, slowly making it's way up his arm. Wherever the Qi went, Yao Jun felt his flesh rend and tear, carving a new path through his body for Qi to travel. He grit his teeth and endured the pain. There was no such thing as a free lunch in this world, if he wanted to acquire strength, he would have to pay the price and suffer the pain. As the stream of Qi started traveling further up his arm, another stream of Qi left Yao Jun's normal veins, covering his left hand. The Qi reached the hole that had been produced in his hand and started slowly healing it. Yao Jun made sure that only the outer part of the hand was healed, sealing up the wound but not the new channel. The stream of Qi continued to carve a path through his body, slowly reaching his shoulder, before it started carving a path towards his chest. After what felt like an eternity, the stream of Qi reached his chest and ended up next to his heart, right next to a black gate that was located next to his heart. The stream of Qi entered the gate, appearing right next to Yao Jun's body. After the Qi appeared next to him, it returned to the ancient tree, completing the process of creating a new channel that was connected to his Demon God's Gate, After the connection had been established, Yao Jun couldn't help but release a sigh, his entire body drenched in sweat. He still felt pain in his body as he was not completely used to the new channel, but it was much better than the pain of having a new channel carved into his body. Yao Jun absorbed more Qi from his surroundings and filled up the new channel. Once he had filled the channel with Qi, he sank his mind into the channel. Sword Empyrean Heng Jiang had said that every new channel he dug would contain one of Sword empyrean Heng Jiang's own sword techniques. Once his mind sank into the channel, the token that Sword Empyrean Heng Jiang had given him start trembling. It moved through his body and entered the channel that Yao Jun had just created. A tranquil and familiar voice rang out in Yao Jun's head as his vision turned white. “Little one, finally you have started training in my technique.”
